Right, I think we had discussed this back in v3 or so. But for grub, or
other bootloaders, the idea would be for them to use pass the CC blob
via a struct setup_data corresponding to SETUP_CC_BLOB, introduced in:
x86/boot: Add Confidential Computing type to setup_data
the boot_params field is only used internally to allow boot/compressed
to hand the CC blob over to kernel proper without kernel proper needing
to rescan for EFI blob (and thus needing all the efi config parsing
stuff).
